September is moving at the speed of light! It was a month that I thought I was really going to embrace my morning routine - you know, the 5:00 AM wake, hydrate, meditate, and  tackle the days workout routine, all before B and the girls wake up - but little did I know, September would come in on fire and make me BEYOND exhausted! Despite the new school year and activity schedule whipping me out, there are endless moments that made me smile and cry just a bit!

As an interior designer, one of the most rewarding parts of a project is getting to the finishing line — and shelf styling is one of my favorites. It’s where personality and design truly come together.

“Hey Catherine! It’s so nice to meet you.” is the phrase I hear on a daily basis. In the past two-and-a-half years, my name has gone from Alison to Catherine and back to Alison in the matter of minutes of meeting vendors, potential clients, and everyone in between.
